Bad key bindings over ssh from a mac

I encountered, for some time now, problems when connecting over ssh from my mac to a linux machine.
These problems were related to backspace/delete key in both nano and zsh the solutions I found today are :

For zsh type :

echo "bindkey ^? backward-delete-char" >> ~/.zshrc
echo "bindkey ^[[3~ delete-char" >> ~/.zshrc

WARNING : you should type these commands not copy/paste them, ^? sequence is obtained using ctrl+v then [backspace key].

For nano type :

## Fix Backspace/Delete confusion problem.
echo "set rebinddelete" >> ~/.nanorc

All should works now.[…]

RewriteRule for ScriptAlias with mod_proxy enabled

Since my switch to Apache2+mod_proxy+mongrel, I had some troubles figuring how to make urls defined by a ScriptAlias work.

As an example, take Awstats, tipically it’s configuration involve a ScriptAlias directive in you vhost configuration.

Something like :

ScriptAlias /awstats/ /var/www/your_site_dir/cgi-bin/awstats/
<Directory /var/www/your_site_dir/cgi-bin/awstats/>
   AllowOverride All
   Options ExecCGI FollowSymLinks
   Order allow,deny
   Allow from all
</Directory>

But when mod_proxy is enabled, all requests are proxied, ignoring your ScriptAlias directive.

A solution if you also use mod_rewrite is to write something like this :

RewriteRule "^/awstats/.*" "$0" [PT,L]

The magic switch is PT which enable rewrite rules to be shared between differents mods.[…]
